Brother Cheng intentionally nitpicked: "But just now when they arrived, you all cheered."

"Elder Jiang, it's a misunderstanding!"

Spirit Ink Immortal King righteously stated: "We believe you will definitely defeat the bandits, and seeing them walk into the trap willingly, we couldn't help but cheer!"

Other Immortal Kings quickly agreed.

"That's right, we cheered for the impending victory of justice!"

"For the impending doom of the ugly enemies!"

"Infinite Cave Heaven has been rampant for years, it's about time they were wiped out!"

"Elder Jiang has done a great deed for the Middle Immortal Realm, benefiting this age and the next, truly worthy of being written about!"

"Let's erect a monument upon our return for generations to sing praises!"

Brother Cheng was quite impressed with these fair-weather friends and smooth talkers.

They could turn black into white, leaving him with no way to deal with them.

"Really?"

"Could it be, seeing Infinite Cave Heaven coming, you thought you wouldn't have to hand over treasures to me..."

Before he could finish, Spirit Ink Immortal King had already taken off his storage ring, removed his Immortal Sword, and taken off his Seventh-grade Immortal Armor.

Then, he carefully and respectfully presented them to Brother Cheng.

"Elder Jiang, please take the trouble!"

"Allow me to entrust my humble possessions to your safekeeping, hoping you won't find it bothersome!"

The attitude was as if handing over a thousand-pound burden to Sect Leader Jiang.

"Alright, alright..."

This old man's perceptiveness was so excessive, even Brother Cheng was a bit bewildered.

Others weren't slow either.

"Elder Jiang, here's mine!"

"And mine, please accept it quickly!"

"It's really troublesome for you, having to take care of these for us..."

The urgency resembled being driven to reincarnate, leaving Brother Cheng almost overwhelmed.

There was no other choice.

With Infinite Cave Heaven wiped out and the Quasi-Emperor submitting, it extinguished the last bit of their wishful thinking.

Seeing Spirit Ink Immortal King's downfall, now their only thought was to survive.

Once collected, they hurried away from here at the fastest speed.

In the blink of an eye, only a mess was left on the ground and Brother Cheng dazed in the wind.

Clearly, it was him who took their stuff, but why did the process seem somewhat passive?

However, fortunately, the gains were immense.

The loot from Infinite Cave Heaven and these people was all converted into merit, totaling 68.74 million.

And beyond that, Bai Chenzhou's unexpected submission shocked everyone at the scene.

It significantly increased his shock value once more.

After a final tally, his merit had surpassed 70 million.

While he was busy doing the math, Sect Leader Yuan Zhen, Yuan Sheng, and other Feixian Sect Elders gathered around him.

Everyone started with flattery, Elder Jiang was truly formidable, not only subduing the immortals but even making the once most powerful expert of the Middle Immortal Realm submit.

Then, their faces all turned to worry.

"Elder Jiang, as Chen Zhou Quasi-Emperor just mentioned, our sect's ancestors are not in a favorable situation in the Upper Immortal Realm!"

For them, the ancestors have always been a totemic presence in their hearts, though never seen, they've been their greatest pride.

Before, they guessed the ancestors might be targeted in the Upper Immortal Realm, but it was always just speculation.

Now, this news being confirmed, even Sect Leader Yuan Zhen was somewhat disheartened.

"Yes, and aren't we sure if the ancestors are well..."

"Just as Chen Zhou Quasi-Emperor mentioned earlier, they've suffered heavy casualties, what should we do..."

The other elders were similarly at a loss.

On one hand, they admire and revere the ancestors and don't wish for anything to happen to them.

On the other hand, they originally hoped to find big backers once they reach the Upper Immortal Realm.

Think about the number of Immortal Kings Feixian Sect has sent up over the years, totaling over a thousand!

This quantity almost matches the current total number of Immortal Kings in the Middle Immortal Realm.

It's such a massive force.

Moreover, most of them went to the Upper Immortal Realm seventy to eighty million years ago, by now, there might be several Immortal Emperors and Quasi-Emperors.

In Yuan Shu, Yuan Mu, and others' views, just reaching the Upper Immortal Realm would be like enjoying the shade of a big tree.

The ancestors would protect them well.

But now, it seems the situation is more complicated.

"There's nothing to worry about."

Brother Cheng shrugged, "Don't worry, with me around, things will definitely get better."

Although he said this, he was actually more eager than ever to meet those disciples.

This nonchalant assurance couldn't truly ease Yuan Zhen and the others' concerns.

Although Ancestor Jiang's personal strength was outstanding, the Upper Immortal Realm was a world ruled by Immortal Emperors.

Especially since Yuan Shu, Yuan Mu, and other elders, along with the other disciples, didn't know Brother Cheng was the first-generation ancestor.

In their hearts, given that so many ancestors were heavily injured or dead, even if you went up, the situation might not be too promising...

"Alright, why don't you all return to the sect first, I have some matters to discuss with them."

Brother Cheng wasn't in the mood for psychological counseling.

"In nine more years, I'll take all of Feixian Sect up to the Upper Immortal Realm."

"What are your plans for then?"

Xiao Kun, Shali, and the Twelve Corpse Kings immediately patted their chests and said, "Sect Leader Jiang, wherever you go, we'll follow!"

They didn't want to let go of Brother Cheng's strong backing.

Compared to those disciples of Feixian Sect, their confidence in Sect Leader Jiang was much higher.

Xiao Kun added: "Actually, if it weren't for the opportunity with the Enlightenment Immortal Tree, I would have already gone up to reunite with Brother Void Abyss!"

Jiyun also sighed: "That's right, I also want to see Senior Brothers Qingyun and Liuyun as soon as possible!"

Liu Yuan laughed and clapped: "Haha, I am more eager to experience the alchemy techniques of the Upper Immortal Realm..."

The others looked at him with sympathy, suddenly a bit schadenfreude.

How pitiful, the greatest alchemist is right beside you, and yet you're unaware.

But also, during the alchemy of the Enlightenment Immortal Tree, Sect Leader Jiang demonstrated his powerful skills in refining eighth-grade Immortal Pills, and you missed it, you old man.

"Why are you all looking at me like that?"

Liu Yuan Immortal King was utterly puzzled: "Did I say something wrong?"

"A bunch of commoners, my persistent pursuit of the peak of alchemy is not something you can understand!"

Xiao Kun, Shali, and others laughed loudly: "Indeed, we don't understand you."

Jiyun, Wu Jue, and others deliberately praised with Yin-Yang sarcasm.

"How high is your realm..."

"Admiration, admiration..."

Brother Cheng didn't bother to clarify, he didn't want to endure another stretch of consecutive days busy with alchemy.

After a bout of laughter, Jiyun Immortal King came over a bit embarrassed.

"Sect Leader Jiang, I have an excessive request, could you spare me 20 Immortal Fate Orders, I wish to take some disciples and grand-disciples up."

Wu Jue, Mingchi, and others originally thought that since he himself deemed it excessive, he shouldn't mention it.

But once Jiyun was done, they all fell silent.

Immediately, Xiao Kun laughed and rubbed his hands.

"Sect Leader Jiang, could you also give me 30, I have some juniors I wish to take up."

"Me too, quite a few disciples I can't leave behind..."
